Just wanted to share some pictures with you! I'm 12 weeks pregnant now, with a tentative due date of April 18, 2010. I've taken a bit of a break from blogging lately because...well, as many of you know...1st trimester and I don't get along very well. That's a bit of an understatement. I'm feeling better, but still on 2 anti-nausea medicines. Right now I'm using a Zofran pump (the medicine goes into a small site on my leg, and I change the site from one leg to the other every 1-2 days), taking Phenergan by mouth, and am on IV fluids at home (I'll be gradually getting off of the IV fluids soon).
Enough about all of that for now...I'd rather show you pictures of the little cutie! These pictures were taken on Monday, October 5th.
Most of the pictures we saw were the regular ultrasound images that you'd expect...so we didn't think we'd get to see any 3-D images at 12 weeks! This was an unexpected blessing!
Funny...this picture looks like a smile, doesn't it?! :o) That's a hand coming up on the other side of baby's mouth.
"Hi everybody! Can you see me waving at you?"
Close-up shot...Ok...so I know we're only at 12 weeks...but I made a casual comment to the ultrasound technician that it was too bad it was too early to find out the sex of the baby. Hmm...we loved our ultrasound technician, 'cause that just made her decide to go on a little "search"! At first, she said that she could only give about a 70% accurate guess because it's so early. However...she was getting such good pictures that we all seemed a bit more confident of her guess by the end. She asked us to please let her know if she guessed right, in case we don't see her when we come back for our next ultrasound in November. So funny that she wrote "Hmmm?" on the picture below. This picture is the view you'd get looking upward from underneath baby's bottom (in between the legs, of course). ;o) Check out the little arrow...and tell me what you think! :o)

You'd better start thinking of awesome little boy names! :)
Boy has for sure got my vote!
Hi Kristin! Yay!! Congrats! I am so excited for you all and praising God for the new little one on the way! I only know what little girl parts look like on an ultrasound since we are on girl #3, but I do know the view never looked like that. My guess is that those are little boy parts. Please let us know when you find out for sure!
I'm sorry you have been so sick again. I remember how much you struggled through your pregnancy with Noelle. I will be praying for you and little baby in the belly too!
We've SO been praying for you during this time! And definitely share in your excitement! The 3D pictures are just amazing. We are just thrilled for you guys and pray you gain your strength and feel better and better each and every day!
YAY! So exciting! Please let me know if you ever want me to take Noelle to give you a break and let the girls play! :)
